30 TopicsUnified Company Calendar for Mixed Microsoft 365 and Non-365 Users – 2025
Seeking a Shared Calendar Solution for Mixed Microsoft 365 and Non-365 Users I’m working on a solution to create a shared company calendar that everyone in our organization can view, while keeping editing permissions limited to a few selected individuals. The challenge: Some of our team members do not use Microsoft 365, and I’d like them to still be able to subscribe to or view the calendar and receive updates. Ideally, this should work without requiring full Microsoft accounts. I initially considered using an ICS-based calendar, but it seems Microsoft 365 Group calendars don’t support sharing via ICS links. I also explored creating a Group calendar as suggested in other threads, but ran into issues making it accessible to external users or those without 365 accounts. For context, I’m a Global Admin, so I have full access to configure settings in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center and Exchange if needed. We’re a small business, and our main goal is to have a centralized calendar for vacation schedules and company-wide events. It should be simple to access and maintain, with a focus on collaboration and accessibility across the board. What I’m looking for: A calendar that’s viewable by all, including non-M365 users Editable only by a few delegated team members Compatible with Microsoft 365, but not dependent on it for basic access Any tools, workarounds, or best practices that have worked for others in similar hybrid environments30Views0likes1CommentActual list of updated features in Microsoft 365
As a trainer, it is infuriating that there is no single site that list what has been updated/added/modified when an update is applied in Office. I used to go to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/current-channel, which was great. Now, all that displays is bug fixes or security updates. Can anyone provide a site which lists what has been done or added to Office? I should not have to subscribe and watch YouTube channels to find out about things like REGEXEXTRACT or TRIMRANGE, Trim operators, etc. For example, last week the pin for documents in the backstage on Open turned into a star. I figured that out, yet it would be nice to look at a list in one area. I should not have to find things out on the fly or in a class and say, "Oh. They changed that." That's ridiculous. Any help is appreciated.320Views0likes1Comment365 developer program reaction
Hi All, all we know in 365 we have developer program. It's really use full. But unfortunately last year due to family I not use it regularly. So the trail period not extended got expired. I am trying to re active the account. In the dashboard we gave delete profiles. Once we click it's saw after 24 hour you can join and get 60 days trail again. But if I came after 24 hour it's going to the registration process. Once it's done it's reducing to the old dashboard page whenever I have the expired profile. Please help me with re activate my account. Thanks Kannan N90Views0likes0CommentsPrepare-PlacesEnablement script fails with "Cannot overwrite variable false because it is read-only"

Our agency used the Office Deployment Tools to generate the files and configuration.xml needed for installing Office 365 as a MultiUser license. I start it in an elevated command prompt and run the command of setup.exe /configure configuration.xml. I get the initial splash screen and then follow up splash screen with progress bar, but it doesn't progress past about 2% of the install. I even left it overnight and it never went any further. Network doesn't appear to be blocking it. Another note I saw said TLS 1.2 is needed and I have checked that selection in the internet options. Any other thoughts on what might be stopping this installation?814Views0likes2Comments
